Primary
The series primarily critiques the flawed pursuit of truth, the impact of social media, and the dangers of superficial judgment within a high school setting, without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology, thus landing on a neutral rating.
The series features a visibly diverse cast across its main and supporting characters, reflecting a contemporary high school environment. However, its narrative primarily focuses on satirical elements and a high school mystery, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its core message.
Secondary
